After all, as soldiers, it's impossible for them to lack even this basic sense of smell.
It would be strange if they just laughed it off like Lycorina and the other two.
Therefore, he had considered this situation as well.
He now has a crucial piece of information: information about Lycorina and two others, plus a large number of believers who know about it but don't know the specifics.
"Before I defeated the Goblin Centurion, I captured a group of demons called [Succubi]."
Not long after, An Yi spoke calmly.
Hilo: "A succubus?"
"When we went to fight the Goblin Centurion, we had a succubus lead the way."
Because I didn't know if succubi would provide the goblin centurion with information we couldn't understand, I had them teach me a part of the demon language.
"Miss Miluko should know that I spent some time alone with the succubi before notifying everyone to capture them," Annie explained.
The others simultaneously turned their gaze to Miluko.
Miluko: "?!"
I? !
Milu shrugged and then looked around at the ground.
Think...think quickly...remember!
“Yes…” Milu nodded.
[Hero of the Thorns: After capturing the succubi, Mr. Anyi interrogated them for a period of time.]
Before I arrived to provide support, Mr. An'i had already extracted crucial information about the Goblin Centurion from his interrogation.
Milu was afraid that she would stutter, so she typed directly.
An Yi nodded: "It was during that time that I learned the language of the demons from them."
Some topics were related to attacks, while others were related to daily life. Through systematic analysis, I learned a basic amount of demonic language.
"Then why didn't you tell us just now?!" Hilo Liu questioned again. 〇&“7∵”″▲零≤←
An Yi remained calm: "Just now I was teaching you how to use the system to analyze and record the words of the demons, and telling you the basic learning principles."
Otherwise, I could simply tell you that I learned the demon language from the succubus; why would I need to explain so much?
“That…that makes sense.” Shiloh scratched his head.
The other three members of the Silver Moon Squad also fell into thought.
Yes, if An Yi hadn't explained so much and had simply replied with a casual "I learned from the succubus," then they wouldn't have had anything to say.
After all, these are things that people know and can verify.
An Yi didn't need to explain to them, or even teach them, or even rebuke their doubts.
But he still explained it properly.
Sephie still had some doubts about whether the succubus had really taught him the demon language, but now that things had come to this, she was too embarrassed to ask any further.
Besides, what's the use of doubting?
The succubus isn't here, so there's no way to verify whether she taught it or not.
Lycorina was somewhat dissatisfied: "Those chosen as heroes by the High God are all people who hate the demon race."
If An Yi were as you suspect, the High God certainly wouldn't have chosen him!
She was somewhat displeased. Whether it was the other party's suspicion of An Yi or the Celestial's choice, Lycorina was unhappy.
“Okay, we were overthinking it.” Shiloh nodded sheepishly.
Upon hearing this, Airo and Sephiro were also suddenly startled.
Yes, if An Yi really had some unspeakable relationship with the demons, then why would the gods bestow power upon him?
They don't know An Yi's background, but doesn't God know it?
"I'm sorry, we were being too sensitive." Sephie bowed her head twice and apologized to An Yi.
Airo echoed, "You just helped me, and I haven't even thanked you yet. I'm sorry."
Sisley bent down slightly.
However, she was more inclined to trust An Yi than to doubt him.
After all, it was An Yi who helped her build confidence and trained her.
If An Yi is an enemy, then why bother to cultivate a troublesome enemy yourself?
“Let’s go.” An Yi didn’t blame them. “Now that we know the system’s functions, our task is no longer just to unlock the encyclopedia.”
At the same time, we must try our best to learn as many demon languages as possible.
Then take it back to human territory.
“Okay!” Hilo nodded with a smile.
Walking down the street, everything was new and exciting, from the strangely shaped demons to the equally strange houses and streets, and even the goods for sale.
The demons on the road were chattering away, which sounded like the eight heroes were also chattering away to them.
Contrary to expectations, entering the demon city didn't present the immense pressure of survival I had anticipated. On the contrary...
It's a bit like a visit or an outing?
However, what they didn't know was that they were able to move freely on the streets because there were several people in the group whose magical power was comparable to that of a level four demon.
Otherwise, given their size, the demons would want to kick them as soon as they saw them to see how far they could be sent flying.
Moreover, they know their own strength, so they walk with a certain confidence.
Other humans entered timidly, clearly harboring guilty consciences, making it difficult for them to move an inch within the demon realm.
However, the humans who come here are unaware of this, simply believing that the demons have gone mad.
Although the demons bear 70% of the responsibility, humans also bear 30%.
At the back of the line, Annie asked Lycorina:
"Your Highness, didn't you suspect I was an enemy just now?"
“Doubt? Why would you doubt?” Lycorina retorted.
"Because I used a demonic language that no human being knows," An Yi said.
"So what?"
"Ku'an is a genius, isn't it normal for her to do things that no one in the world can do!" Lycorina said matter-of-factly.
An Yi paused for a moment, then said after a brief silence, "Let's just say it is that way."
Thank you. "
"Thank you, I accept! But... what exactly are you thanking me for?" Lycorina was happy, but also puzzled.
"I guess so. Thank you for believing me," Annie said.
"Whoa." Lycorina was a little unsure how to react, and simply replied with a sound.
What is there for An Yi to thank?
Isn't this just common sense?!
Because An Yi has always trusted her!
In a few days...
There are three days left until the birth of the Holy Hero.
The distance between the sacrifice of [Sword Hero: Hilo Luce] and the slaying of the Sword Demon;
three days left.
Chapter 152 The local customs are fierce; if you're not convinced, then fight! (4k long chapter)
Sword Demon City, Baron's Mansion.
Among the demons, this place is not called "Moonlight City". Because it is the city of the "Sword Demon", it is called "Sword Demon City".
It has nothing to do with Aatrox.
The names given to demons are generally simple, straightforward, and easy to understand.
"How's the search for the assassin going?"
In the manor's conference hall, Baron Ferdinand, the Demon of the Sword, sat cross-legged.
He was muscular, three meters tall, with dark purple skin, light gray hair tied in a bun at the back of his head, and black and gold eyes that emitted a faint golden light.
The bare upper body has four thick arms, with two hands clasped in front and two hands supporting it behind. The feet wrapped around the body are not human feet, but a pair of cow hooves.
A humanoid demon with black wings on its back and a raven's head respectfully replied, "Reporting to Baron, there is currently no relevant information."
The assassin vanished without a trace, as if evaporated into thin air.
"Perhaps they've already entered the city?" said another humanoid demon with white wings and a pigeon-like head.
"Alright, let's increase the vigilance." Ferdinand raised his right hand, which was supporting him behind his back, and waved it.
He is the Demon of the Sword. He is obsessed with the sword but is not violent. If it were a more temperamental demon, at least one of his subordinates would be dead.
Because a full week had passed since the search for the killer began.
"Damn, of all times for this to happen!"
Lying on the ground, the giant, inhuman scorpion slammed its pincers against the earth.
"We finally caught this wanted criminal, and it must be other lords sending men to intercept him! They're trying to steal our Baron's credit!"
"Hey, you can't say that!" the pigeon-headed man warned, raising his hand. Part Two
"Speaking of which, the wanted criminal hasn't been brought into the city yet, has he?" Ferdinand asked.
Just over two weeks ago, Ferdinand and his demon subordinates captured a wanted criminal among the demons.
The opponent was very strong, and Ferdinand lost several of his best men before he was able to capture him, severely damaging the territory.
